DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO'S
ALWAYS DOING THINGS TO HELP
WITH OTHER PEOPLE.
THEY'RE UNIQUE, SELFLESS.
ALL THEY WANT TO DO IN THEIR
LIFE IS BE A HUMAN ANGEL AND
HELP OTHER PEOPLE.
>> I'M SURE WE KNOW SOMEBODY
LIKE THAT.

THEY SO DESERVE.
STAY WITH US.
MORE DETAILS AFTER THE
BREAK.
>> DUBE SOMEONE LIKE CINDY?
DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE LIKE AN
ANGEL WALKING AMONG US?
IF THAT IS A YES, WE WANT TO
MEET THEM.
A PHILANTHROPIST, HE
LAUNCHED ANGELS AMONG US.
HE'S LOOKING FOR AN ANGEL IN
SAN ANTONIO TO HONOR.
>> GOOD MORNING.
>> THANKS FOR TRAVELLING SO
FAR.
>> GREAT TO BE HERE.
>> W E'RE SO EXCITED.
SAN ANTONIO IS GETTING A
CHANCE TO TAKE PART IN THIS.
THIS IS A NATIONALLY
RECOGNIZED AWARD AND YOU
CAME UP WITH IT.
IT'S ALL YOU.
WHERE DID YOU COME UP WITH
THIS IDEA?
>> SO THE GREAT NEWS IS IS
THAT IT ISN'T ABOUT ME AT
ALL.
IT'S ABOUT THESE WONDERFUL
PEOPLE WHO ARE AMAZING IN
THE WAY THEY LIVE THEIR
LIVES SELFLESSLY TO HELP
OTHERS.
IT ALL STARTED WITH THE
FIRST HUMAN ANGEL STORY
THAT'S CAPTURED IN THIS
LITTLE BOOK, TURN RIGHT AT
THE DANCING COW.
>> LOVE THAT TITLE.
>> AND THIS IS A HUMAN ANGEL
FROM THE SEATTLE AREA.
BUT THEN IT JUST GREW LIKE
JACK AND THE MEAN STALK AND
WE BEGAN TO REALIZE THERE
ARE HUMAN ANGELS ALL OVER
THIS COUNTRY.
AND SAN ANTONIO HAS A
NATIONAL REPUTATION FOR
BEING VERY COMMUNITY-MINDED.
SO I'M SURE THERE ARE
HUNDREDS OF HUMAN ANGELS
RIGHT HERE.
>> YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TROUBLE PICKING JUST ONE.
>> I THINK SO.
>> ONLY ONE PERSON CAN WIN.
SO WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
WE SAW CINDY'S STORY.
-- REID FROM SAN DIEGO.
>> REID IS JUST ONE OF THOSE
PEOPLE WHO HAPPENED TO
NOTICE A REAL NEED.
HE WAS ON A CROSS-COUNTRY
FLIGHT OUT OF THE SAN DIEGO
AIRPORT A FEW YEARS AGO AND
HE NOTICED THAT ONE OF OUR
MARINES WAS UNABLE TO EVEN
AFFORD A MEAL.
RATHER THAN JUST SIT BACK
AND WATCH OR GET ANGRY, HE
BOUGHT THAT MARINE A MEAL
AND THEN HE TALKED TO HIM
AND DISCOVERED THAT MANY OF
OUR SERVICEMEN AND
SERVICEWOMEN HAVE THE SAME
PROBLEM.
WELL, HE DECIDED TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
AND HE FORMED WAVES OF
APPRECIATION.
AND THIS IS A GROUP OF
HUNDREDS OF VOLUNTEERS WHO
HANG OUT IN THE SAN DIEGO
AIRPORT AND WATCH FOR OUR
MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM AND
PROVIDE THEM A LITTLE BAG
FULL OF FOOD AND MONEY AND
PERSONAL ITEMS SO THAT THEY
HAVE EVERYTHING THEY NEED
WHEN THEY MAKE THEIR
CROSS-COUNTRY TRIPS BACK
HOME.
>> SO HE WAS JUST SO MOVED
BY THIS GENTLEMAN THAT HE
MET THAT HE CREATED THIS
ENTIRE ORGANIZATION.
YOU HEARD OF HIM AND HE
ACTUALLY WAS AWARDED AN
ANGEL ON EARTH.
>> RIGHT.
A LITTLE AWARD THAT LOOKS
LIKE THIS.
NOT A LOT TO IT.
>> IT MEANS A LOT.
>> AND JUST RECOGNIZING
THESE PEOPLE AND HONORING
THEM MEANS A GREAT DEAL TO
THEM.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
IT MEANS A GREAT DEAL TO US.
BECAUSE WE NEED TO BELIEVE
IN THE HUMAN POTENTIAL FOR
GOODNESS AND DECENCY.
AND THESE STORIES ALLOW US
TO BELIEVE AND THESE PEOPLE
ARE REAL.
NAY EAR NOT MADE UP STORIES.
THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE.
CINDY JONES IS A GREAT
EXAMPLE.
HERE'S A WOMAN AND HUSBAND
WHO LOST EVERYTHING IN THE
DOWNTURN -- THE FINANCIAL
DOWNTURN IN 2007 AND '08.
RATHER THAN GIVE UP AND END
UP SLEEPING IN THEIR CAR,
THEY TOOK JOBS AT THIS
WONDERFUL HOME FOR ABUSED
CHILDREN AND THEN CINDY
REACHED INTO HER OWN LIFE
AND SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, I
THINK THESE HORSEMANSHIP
SKILLS THAT I HAVE COULD
REALLY HELP CHILDREN.
>> SURE.
>> WELL, IT'S HAD A HUGE
IMPACT ON THE LIVES OF THE
KIDS.
>> SHE WAS AWARDED THE HUMAN
ANGELS AWARD.
OKAY, HERE'S THE DEAL.
